Georgetown forward Greg Whittington missed much of the 2012-13 season because of academic ineligibility. He could miss the entire 2013-14 season with a torn ACL, ESPN.com reported. However, it's possible he is able to return late in the campaign.

The 6-8 Whittington, who averaged 12.1 points and seven rebounds before being declared ineligible in January, would be the Hoyas’ second-leading returning scorer behind Markel Starks.

Georgetown, coming off a surprising loss to Florida Gulf Coast in the NCAA Tournament’s round of 64, will have a new group of assistant coaches under John Thompson III this coming season. With Kenya Hunter, Mike Brennan and Scott Greenman off pursuing other opportunities, Tavares Hardy and Kevin Sutton have replaced them. The director of basketball operations spot has yet to be filled, though assistant DOBO Othella Harrington’s name has been mentioned as the possible replacement for that role.
